Your post make remind a movie that time before, I could to see, I don't remember the movie name, but in the movie work two actors very knowns in U.S.A, then when you're speaking about the last things that you can do before to die, I believe that is the decision of each person who life in this word, for example.

The last 6 things that, I'd to do before to die.

I'd like to travel very far of my country with my family.

I'd leave a great future to my children so they could to be their future more comfortable as well as they can life.

I'd like to be in the best beach of the word with my wife and watch the sun as fall in the afternoon.

I'd like to be with my parents and my brothers, and so I can ask pardon of all the things that I've made before.

and the last thing that I'd like to do before to die.

I would like to be with god and asking him pardon for all my sins made during my life.

Therefore, I believe that if you have chance to have a great life with your family therefore. What do you wait? let's go and you enjoy to your family, you most remember that our life only is borrow and any time god can asking us the life to come back.

I agree with Irmamar. Se hizo padre sounds weird.

What I understand of:
"Ponerse padre" as "me gustaría ponerme padre en el fútbol" . Creo que es una expresión que se usa en otros países (acá no). Por eso no lo corregí porque me pareció bien dicho. Sería lo mismo que decir que quiere mejorar en fútbol.

O sino, esto es más normal haberlo escuchado en alguna película mexicana:
"Estás muy padre! / en xxxxx" Haber si algún mexicano nos ilumina.

En México, algo que es o está (muy) padre, es algo que está o es genial, muy bonito, etc. Pero con respecto a alguien, se puede decir que tiene un carácter muy padre, que es padre estar con alguien... pero "estás muy padre" no tendría mucho sentido... en todo caso, "eres muy padre" (you're cool, nice, agreeable, fun, etc.).
Por cierto, no tiene nada qué ver con la paternidad.

Me gusta tu camisa. Está muy padre.
I like your shirt. It's cool.

Es bien padre viajar en avión.
It's so nice travelling by plane.

Sus vacaciones estuvieron bien padres. Se fueron a la playa.
Their holidays were cool. They went to the beach.

Mi maestra de inglés da clases bien padres. Nos divertimos mucho.
My English teacher's course is great. We have a lot of fun.

Juan tiene un carácter bien padre. Siempre dice cosas positivas.
Juan has a nice character. He always says positive things.

Me encanta hablar contigo, porque siempre aprendo cosas padres.
I love talking to you because I always learn cool things.


Una pequeña nota: "ponerse alguien padre", tampoco tiene sentido.

Bob juega padre fútbol.
Bob is a good football player.

El juego se puso padre cuando Bob salió a la cancha.
The match became interesting when Bob came to the field.

In the neeeeeeeext years maybe I would like to:

1. Learn: English(studying now), Japanese(studying now), French(starting soon) and Germán (besides latin and greek that I'll study in the university)

2. Read and Write.

3. Travel. Especially to Japan, Germany and France.

4. Live near the beach.

5. Dominate the world and reign with a dry and cold face while singing: "pipiru piru piru pipirupi"
